kings cup

Card circle game

Kings cup is a drinking game where players draw cards from a deck arranged around a central cup, each card triggering a different rule—making rhymes, starting a waterfall of drinking, or pouring into the king's cup.

Whoever draws the fourth king drinks the accumulated cup.

Rules vary widely by region and house.

Also called ring of fire or circle of death.
